Manipur tribal body to rally in six States for ‘separate administration’

An apex tribal organisation would hold rallies in six States on November 29 to intensify the demand for a ‘separate administration’ for the Kuki-Zo community in ethnic violence-scarred Manipur.

The rallies would be organised simultaneous in New Delhi, Karnataka, Mizoram, Tamil Nadu, and Tripura apart from the tribal areas of Manipur, the Indigenous Tribal Leaders’ Forum (ITLF) said.

The decision followed a meeting of 10 Kuki-Zo MLAs from Manipur with Mizoram Chief Minister Zoramthanga in Aizawl. The MLAs, including seven of the BJP, have stayed away from Imphal since the ethnic violence broke out on May 3.
